Bridging to Cadettes

Bridging from Girl Scout Juniors to Girl Scout Cadettes took place on Thursday, May 17th at 5:30 in the Sam Davey art room.  We were honored to have so many family members join us for the ceremony.  Here are a few pictures.  Below I have included the meanings behind the colors of the candles.





The White Candle - The light of Girl Scout Cadettes I share with you as you explore the Girl Scout World through Interest Projects, Service, Career Exploration, and leadership opportunities.

The red candle stands for the World of Well-Being, which helps young women understand themselves, their values, needs, emotions and strenghts, while also being aware of what it takes to be physically fit.

The orange candle stnds for the World of Today and Tomorrow, which lets a young woman look into the how's and whys of things, to solve problems and to recognize the ways their present interests can build toward future ones.

The yellow candle stands for the World or Outdoors.  Explorations in this world can help a young woman to enjoy and appreciated her natural environment and to take action to protect and preserve her world and environment.

The blue candle stands for the World of People.  This world can help a young woman to build prind in her own heritage, while appreciating the unigueness of each culture and the comon theme of all peoples.

The purple candle stands for the World of the Arts.  To develop a personal taste and appreciation for the many art forms and things of beauty in the world around them.

The Green Candle - From the light of the Five Worlds, may your Girl Scout world ever grow.
